your fourth trimester friend.

going home with a newborn is the moment the system hands you a pamphlet and wishes you luck. if you'd rather have an expert in your corner (someone who comes to you, knows your baby, and answers the questions you've been Googling at 2am) that's what I'm here for.

get started.

one clinician, the whole fourth trimester.

warm clinical care without fragmentation.

nice to meet you!

your midwife discharges you. the child and family health nurse sees you at milestones. your GP has fifteen minutes. everyone is kind, and everyone hands you on. I'm the one who stays, a doctorally-prepared nurse practitioner with extensive newborn experience who can assess your baby, prescribe when needed, and keep showing up until you feel steady. in your home, on your schedule, with Medicare rebates where eligible.

get started.

  • whether you're breastfeeding, pumping, combo feeding, or formula feeding, I meet you where you're at. no judgment, no agenda.

    support may include:

    • assessing latch, milk transfer, and feeding efficiency

    • troubleshooting common challenges (pain, nipple trauma, supply concerns, reflux, bottle refusal)

    • tracking infant weight gain

    • helping you make confident feeding decisions without pressure or guilt

    feeding is both physiological and emotional. my role is to help it feel more manageable, informed, and sustainable.

  • newborn sleep is highly variable, and most families receive conflicting advice in the early weeks.

    I support families by:

    • explaining what’s normal at each stage of newborn development

    • helping you identify patterns in your baby’s sleep and wake windows

    • supporting day–night rhythm development and longer stretches of sleep over time

    • offering gentle, responsive strategies that fit your family without the pressure of rigid schedules

    the goal is knowing whats expected and how to support sleep safely and realistically in the early months.

  • life with a newborn rarely fits into neat categories. I’m here for the real-world questions that come up between appointments.

    I support families with:

    • hands-on guidance for bathing, settling, handling, and daily routines

    • weight checks, observations, and Blue Book assessments

    • practical setup support (sleep spaces, feeding areas, product suggestions)

    • talking through concerns as they arise, from normal newborn behaviors to early warning signs & safety netting

    this is the kind of support that helps families feel confident at home.

I come to you. for feeding questions at week two, unsettled nights at week four, and everything in between. the first 12 weeks are a lot and you shouldn't have to figure them out alone.

  • Fourth Trimester Friend walked beside me as I navigated the wonderful and challenging transition to motherhood. In a time that often felt isolating, Fourth Trimester Friend was there. Tati has such a gift for making you feel understood.
